NJ Utilities Prep for Winter Storm [AUDIO]

The state’s major electric utilities have each indicated they are ready to take on a heavy workload, should the Thursday-to-Friday snowstorm result in widespread power outages.

Snow, and lots of it, won’t be the only issue in New Jersey. Strong, gusty winds are also expected, along with temperatures dropping to the single digits overnight.

“A regular snowstorm would not cause us as much concern,” said Lendel Jones with Atlantic City Electric. “Our concern would be the high winds, knocking down tree limbs on wires.”

Jones said the utility is closely monitoring the storm to see how quickly and severely it approaches the region. Staff emails have been sent to let everyone know they may be needed as conditions worsen.
